Taking above as a joke :-) Re. Nomenclature: MickeySoft's "WinDross 95" & "WinDross 98" told year like a wine bottle :-) But FreeBSD also has multiple parallel overlapping release streams. It is a nuisance remembering FreeBSD is 7, NetBSD 4, SUSE 8, etc. Linux minor release names instead of numbers not intuitive to outsiders. src/ports Makefiles etc know about decimal release numbers. 7.2008-Feb unwieldy compared to 7.0 I guess we'll stay as we are.
